I've been doing some reading on LSDs and how their initial torque affects their driving characteristics and behavior. One great example is this - http://www.motoiq.com/MagazineArticl...co-RS-LSD.aspx

I have a 1993 Evo 1 RS that I autocross and want to start lapping with. Recently I acquired an Evo X Ralliart Super Traction rear LSD (yes, I'm pretty sure it works in my car), it's a 20-plate unit vs. my original 12-plate (it's like the E8/9 but all of the plates are active and it's 2-way vs 1.5), and I'm guessing it really changes dynamics. I also have a Ralliart front LSD and Cusco MZ front LSD to choose from, both with very different characteristics; I believe the front diff's initial torque settings will be the most important. I also got my hands on an Adelia Magic mechanical center coupling, but its settings are anyone's guess.

That being said, has anyone experimented with initial torque on their clutch-type LSDs (either front, rear or center) to match a specific tire, or driving condition? If so, what happened?

 

You may have better luck posting this in the motorsports section. I wish I had more info for you!

Cheers,

Yup, bit of a ghost town here
Done, thanks for the heads-up.
